The Clifton Bridge and Observatory from Leigh Woods. The device hanging under the bridge is the inspection and maintenance cradle which runs along the bridge on the handrail. Clifton Bridge in Bristol was designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel to cross the River Avon at Avon Gorge. See also the ballooons over the bridge ...

Clifton Bridge spans the river Avon and connects the City of Bristol to Leigh Woods in Somerset. It was designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel and completed after his death in 1864. He won a competition to design a bridge here, but because the powers that be didn't believe that such a span could be built, he had to build ...

This attempt sadly cut off the top of the bridge and the camera obscura so I'll be back when the light is right. A cloud scudded by too, making that dark patch to the right of centre. British weather is so unreliable!!! Clifton Bridge spans the river Avon and connects the City of Bristol to Leigh Woods in Somerset. I...

Blaise Hamlet as a National Trust "village' on the Blaise Castle estate in Bristol. These lovely little houses are tenanted and must be maintained in the original condition by the tenants. I lived in Bristol for 30 years before I found this place!

This panorama is a combination of 9 shots taken on my Canon 40D with a 200mm Zoom. I was in this location on Dundry hill in order to get a good long lens shot of Brunel's Clifton Bridge (1864) with the old Severn Bridge (1964) behind it in good visibility. I took the other shots for an experiment and have now uploaded ...

This large gigglepan is what I call a superpan with over 800 images making it up. It's well worth exploring. This is called "the floating harbour" because the water is held in by lock gates. Otherwise the boats would all end up resting on the mud at low tide twice each day. The SS Great Britain, built by Isambard Kingd...

This Banksy Graffitti is in Upper Maudlin Street in Bristol. Taken from the top of my 3 meter stand. There is much traffic confusion but that's normal in Bristol!!! . Banksy is from Bristol and this is the first of a series I intend to do of his artwork. See more Banksy at www.gigapan.org/viewGigapan.php?id=2857...

This shot from the top of the Wills Memorial building is a first test of panoramas from this location. In the perfect world I'd do a 360 degree from the centre of the tower (as in my test from a 4 metre pole) but as the top of the tower is very wide (15m I think) I'd need a very tall support for the camera to enable me...

The Wills Memorial Building was built using funds supplied by the Wills tobacco family and finished in 1926. It is part of Bristol University and stands at the top of Park Street in Bristol. See the small pic of the tower at the bottom right.
This is my first 360 degree panorama and so is experimental. It was taken fr...
